:!: This page has not been updated since 2012, so the information it contains may be out of date. | Linked Open Data (LOD) is one component of the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_data|Open Data]] Movement (which aims at making data freely available to everyone). It has been described as a "recommended best practice for exposing, sharing, and connecting pieces of data, information, and knowledge on the Semantic Web using URIs and RDF" ([[https://web.archive.org/web/20191130093839/http://linkeddata.org/|source]]). |

Linked Open Data (LOD), that may be considered as part of the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_data|Open Data]] Movement (which aims at making data freely available to everyone) and could be described as a "recommended best practice for exposing, sharing, and connecting pieces of data, information, and knowledge on the Semantic Web using URIs and RDF" ([[https://web.archive.org/web/20191130093839/http://linkeddata.org/|source]]), has recently gained prominence in many (Digital) Libraries and Archives events and related discussions. | This page presents some selected LOD resources (information, presentations, etc.). Please feel free to add or correct the entries as needed -- many of these links were selected in 2012, and there is likely significant room to expand and update the list. |

The recent [[http://vustuff.org/vustuff/tech-trifecta|Tech Trifecta]] series of conferences' (that took place at Villanova University's Falvey Memorial Library, home of VuFind) presentations and discussions, namely at [[http://vufind.org/wiki/vufind_summit_2012|VuFind Summit 2012]], were a major example that LOD is currently a hot issue and gathers the interest of many institutions. This section presents some selected LOD resources (information, presentations, etc.). Please feel free to add or correct the entries as needed. | |

===== Sharing and Aggregating Social Metadata ===== | |
| |
A pragmatic usage of LOD within VuFind would be using it as a feasible, light weight alternative to have a shared/common index of open content (mentioned [[http://vufind.org/wiki/open_data_sources#shared_index|above]] / please refer to [[http://vufind.org/jira/browse/VUFIND-570|VUFIND-570]] JIRA ticket). | |
| |
By implementing mechanisms for exposing and harvesting social metadata, VuFind installations would be able not only to share their own UGC (User Generated Content / social metadata) but also to collect social metadata from specific VuFind installations. Please refer to [[http://vufind.org/wiki/developers_call:minutes20121113#linked_data|2012-11-13 developers call’ minutes]] for some initial thoughts about this approach. | |
